I want to be better,
I'm never good enough,
Never right,
Always wrong,
Everyones better than me,
I'm better than nobody,
I see through lies,
I see through fake,
I see through you,
And all the crap you take,
But yet you are better,
I am not,
They like you,
They hate me lots.
I do nothing correct,
Yet I do everything right?
What do they see that I do not..
I want to be better.
I want to be more.
I dont want to have to be me anymore.
